Shortening material without losing the difference

Hello guys,

In my case I have a cylinder which should show a round steel. This steel is for example 100 meter long.

It should be shortened to pieces of 25 meters. The problem is that I get a 1 piece of 25. But do not get any other pieces of the whole material.

How would you solve this problem? And with what object?

Thank you in advance.

You need the function of a separator. The Separator Option is Split. The Expression Value is for the Split/Unpack Quantity the amount of items you get. On Exit can you set the new size of the items you have split.
